I am having an issue with Brodie also. He can no longer have certain types of treats or toys because he becomes agressive. If you get close to him he will growl and if my little girl walks in the room he charges at her. He doesn't bite her but he jumps at her while growling and hits her in the face with his mouth. He has done this 3 times in the past month 1/2. If he has something in his mouth that he knows he shouldn't have and you try to take it from him he growls as loud as possible and barks with it in his mouth, if you try to pull it from him he bites up harder and has gotten my hand and my boyfriends hand and let me tell you IT HURT!!! We have been staying with my sister and she has a very annoying beagle. We keep them seperated all the time now because the beagle bites Brodie and barks in his ear. Now Brodie does not bite the other dog and he is not food agressive, unless he gets ahold of something he shouldn't have. I have tried laying him on his side, I've tried the can, I've even popped him on his back leg and nothing I do has broken him of this. Now his new thing is to grab part of my comforter and pull when I am trying to go to sleep, and when I try to get it from him he will NOT let go!!!! I just don't know what to do anymore. It's really scary behavior and I have got to get it stopped now. He is also 9 months old and I have not gotten him fixed yet. I thought about bringing him to obedience school but I really don't have the money to do that now. I am living with my sister for financial reasons. My hopes are to move into a new place within the next few months. but I gotta do something about this now!!
